So why are RTps and our fleet civilian RTs included 
When i greased my UJs and on refitting, i noticed a molded hole on the underside of the rubber boot. I took the boot off to check and indeed you could see it was in the mold. It was filled with grease so i just cleaned the hole out. The Cardan unit was replaced due to the UJ's braking. New rubber boots at each end two years ago by BMW north Oxford. Not sure if this was an upgrade fix or just as they are i don't know what the one was like before they changed it.
It is nice to have a fully documented service history. Must have been owned by an older chap as i have lists of when bulbs and MPG changed with dates and mileage.
